For the size/postion of setup and menu stuff, changing the
values of

Setup/Appearance/ScreenSettings/GUI [XY] offset

worked fine for me (running 0.14).  I was using fvwm2, but now
I don't use any window manager at all.  In both cases the GUI X
and Y offsets worked fine.

Font sizes for some things (e.g. program guide) have to be
adjusted by changing the DPI in your X-server, the font-size
settings under Setup don't control much.

The size/position of the OSD is controlled by the
Settings/TV/Playback/Overscan stuff.

Michael is probably right: the WM window placement policy is
the leading suspect.

Try it w/o any WM, and see what happens.
